ASCII golf game

Back in '85-86, when we got our new IBM XT, we got a ASCII mode golf game with it. I don't remember the name, and I don't remember if it was like full size golf course, or mini golf. It was top-down, and in color.

This is about the last game I've got left to retrieve into my archive from my old days. Help me find it, and I'll be in debt to you forever! Well, maybe not in debt, but I'll definitely be thankful!

Appreciate it, but that's not the one. The one I'm talking about was 80 character width (Poko is 40), and the course was green, and had trees (as could be rendered by ASCII).

Green because of chlorophyll, I presume.

Ha ha! You so funny! :nuts:

Actually my first monitor was amber, not green. It wasn't until I got an EGA monitor that I realized it was green. :amused:
